My greatest hobby
I am Jan Brouwer and I am 73 years old. I am married, have 2 daughters and live in Witmarsum. My biggest hobby is cycling with the Easy Rider tricycle bike. I already have 1400 km on the counter, as of March 2021. When I got the Easy Rider I had trouble staying on the road, but after talking to my occupational therapist I knew it was because of my left hand and so I started practicing with it.
Reason Easy Rider three wheel tricycle
The reason I have this bike is because I had a stroke last year. I have balance problems and can therefore no longer cycle on a normal bike. Meanwhile, cycling on the Easy Rider is much better. The tricycle bike broadens my life. I come to places again.
On the left pedal, I have foot fixation for extra support. I got the bike through the Wmo and it was recommended by my occupational therapist. He has arranged it with the Wmo. I like the Easy Rider three wheel tricycle very much and I also use the Van Raam App to read out the cycled kilometers.
